Statues of Purification Issues! Read here

[lejjdfan]

i talked to 4 of 5 statues but i dont have any spell from the one in the temple and the song portal is opened but i cant go trough it. anyone that knows what to do to get past this?

[Druidblue]

Same here, although I have gone inside the three "places" in that area and finished each (The Gem Mines, and the two buildings.) I have found the Song Portal, which is closed, and I see another State of Purification by the entrance to the zone, but nothing happens upon approaching, and if I click on it it says "Unable to use object during combat!" Although, all creatures are dead on the map.

Is this a bug? It sure seems like it to me. If so, anyone know how I can resolve this? :)

Thanks.

yea thats a bug;p you gotta go to the statue outside before you kill all enemies:S it says how you should solw the problem on biowares nwn2 forum:) but it says nothing about my problem:(

[Ronwue]

Try loading a previous save before you talked to the statue.

then only problem is that i just quicksaved and then quicksaved over it:mad:

[vlad1974]

In my case it worked just fine, even if I kill all before. Maybe if you install the new patch will work.

[lejjdfan]

i got the 1.02 patch or what its called... is there any newer?

[cal1s]

no, the latest patch is v1.02 (809) for the english and v1.02 for the international version.

[lurchman]

I killed several enemies then talked to the first statue. And I have been through the portal. I'm beginning to think there are quite a few bugs in this game yet. And they show up depending on how you play. It shouldn't matter what order you do the statues.

I have encountered a serious problem

I am unable to get past the "locked" door to the statue in the keep. There is a monk (Ribsmasher) looking NPC standing just outside the door, blocking it so i am unable to interact with the door. I tried to click him, and speak to him to get him to move, but nothing happens. He just says that he doesnt have time to speak.

If I try to click the door, all that happens is that I get pushed back and sort of run on the spot =(

Any help or ideas would be greatly apreciated

[Logos]

There are at least two ways to get past that door that I know of, one is to use the master's items (shield, scepter and a third one that I forget) which you can find all over the tower.
Another is to let Ribsmasher kill himself trying to bash the door down, which will give you some evil points - although you should be able to get rid of those easily, if that's not your sort of thing.
However, by the sound of it your game is stuck in a loop; you might have to reload, and make sure you're in control of your main character as you approach the door. If you're planning on using the master's items, also make sure they're in your main character's inventory.

[Logos]

Sounds like yet another example of the infamous "main character" bug. I believe that as you approach the first statue for the first time, there is a cutscene that should fire automatically. It may be the case that if you approach it while in control of a companion instead of your main character, the scene doesn't start, and the game breaks. I don't know for certain if that's the case for you here, but it sounds like you might have to reload to before you arrived in that zone. Try your autosave, that should have been saved when you last crossed the world map.

[Ramiraz]

I found a way through, but thanks anyways =). Ribsmasher has indeed bugged himself, so I wasnt able to interact with him after i got the door opened. I wasnt planning on having him with me or anything, so now that I have gotten that statue it is of little importance.

[wandaien]

all he does is run around with you for a little bit and help you kill the monsters down there.... he's not important, that i know of..

[kniveskills]

well heres my problem,iam not sure what happend but iam in the palce with all the spirits,and there just stuckthere they wont move i click on them and stuff they just wont move,iam sure its something simple to fix but what could have happend?

You didn't talk to the Elf in the beginning. There are torches on the walls that must be turned off and on in order to get the spirits back to the tree. If the torches are on, the spirits won't move. Turn off the torches in the direction that you want the spirits to go, and turn on the torches as they pass. Keep them moving to the tree. I would suggest doing the ones in the back first.

Unfortunately, during the "ritual of purification quest" I missed the first statue(the one just after the bridge) and activated the next three. Now when I try to activate the first statue I receive the error message, "*Failure: You can not use this item while in combat!*", even though my party is not in combat. Any ideas?

* Shrouds on NWN forums solved this yay it was a bug, no going back three levels for me !!!

tanks all

I played through all the challenges and encountered the same problem with the fourth statue (can't use while in combat).

I read that the patch will fix it, but only if you enter the area after you installed the patch. Your saved game will have the same bug and the patch is not an auto fix (I tried it). So, I had to play the whole area again. (this time I chose different options - killed EVERYONE and got more loot hehe)

Thank goodness I had multiple saves and I didn't had to go back too far.

okay when i try to activate the first statue of purification it says that i can't because i'm in combat or whatever even though i've killed ever1 around..:mad:
this prevents me from continuing which seriously annoys me.... i think it may be because my warpriest aura that's permanent cuz it works with other characters or might is be because i've finished the other 3 except the one in the portal... need help?:(

Possibly try going through the world map and back again? See if that clears whatever is stopping you from proceeding with the quest. I would also rest before you come back. Not really sure if that would help or not, but it may be worth a try. The only other things I can think of is you have a bug. Did you save at any point close to this quest? If nothing else works, You may have to redo :( I know it is even painful to type it let alone having to redo time spent.

Let us know how it goes.

nope none of it worked... traveled around, changed companions and dropped my items but nothing:( gonna try to reinstall the game:(

Sorry to hear that :( Also remember to patch the updates. You may already have that planned. I just wanted to do a lil reminder :)


Good luck

Liso

[Mishka]

still no luck even with patches... :( trying to remove "War Glory" with the use of DebugMode even though i am not sure if it is there the bug lies... makes the most sense i think.. anyway no luck in removing it either but i will keep trying... (clinging to hope:o)

[arathalion]

i believe that this is a know bug. try realoading from an old save from before you entered the area.

[Mishka]

already tried that :(

At this point I agree with PP. You have currupted files somewhere more than likely. When you uninstalled the game and before you re-installed, Did you happen to be sure to remove any left over files and folders from your computer? More often than not, uninstalling doesn't remove everything. This could be a problem if any currupted files are left behind. "saved games etc"

Liso

[arathalion]

umm pp? im lost... also, wasnt corrupt files being talked about in a different thread???

PP = previous poster. And your right about the currupted files being on another post. I've had hardly any sleep and maybe a bit foggy headed. (sick 2yo up all night) It still applies though lol

[onedad2k]

I have completed the ritual but the statue at the entrance says i cannot touch it in combat so i cannot get the blessing there do i have to touch it first??and do it all over again

You can't touch it in combat means exactly that.
It's just like rest, kill everything and wait until the combat has ended.

[cal1s]

I merged all the threads about the Statues of Purification.

Have fun!

cheers

My problem at the gemstone mine is that the elf at the beginning is hostile. While neither he nor my character does any actual damage, they still attack each other. He still talks about about the spirits and the tree when I enter the mine. Unfortunatly he keeps tracking my characters and I can't kill him, so it's hard to impossible to get rid of him. I'm sure this is a bug, but patch 1.03 didn't fix it. I try to get through this anyway, though it's quite annoying.

My main character is now a CG human bard1/fighter4/RDD10. My companions are Khelgar, Elanee, Shandra and the Gith cleric. I tried to exit and reenter, then I reloaded a savegame before the mine but none was successful. Anyone with the same problem or possible solutions?

[kperkowski]

I was lucky with first three statues but in the temple simply the statue is not active at all and without forth one I cant go through the portal, any ideas besides starting this part from the beginning?

[cal1s]

have you checked out our walkthrough section mate?
